A sublemmy for nonfiction text discussion - all kinds of nonfiction welcome no matter the topic or format.

Basic rules of good-faith acting apply. With nonfiction things could get contentious but please be respectful during disagreements.

I've just created this community for the discussion of nonfiction books but essays, short pieces etc. Are welcome. Write a little about yourself and the sort of nonfiction you read below.

Interesting about the replication crisis I hadn't heard a name put to it before. For science I know that popular nutrition books constantly contradict each other (eg. Vegan is ideal Vs carnivore Vs Mediterranean etc.) which is a lot down to the difficulty in (re)producing nutrition studies so authors are able to cherry pick from a handful of studies for their desired result. I'm definitely interested in checking out that podcast.
